SmartDispenser®Benchtop Fiber Optic Auto Assembly Station

Automating Fiber Optic Connector Assembly

The Complete System
for True Automation

 

 
By combining AlgorithmicControl^™ with the LC/MT/SC Genius^™ Precision ConnectorMount^™, the High Precision Benchtop Robot, the SmartReload^™ Station and the Fiber Optic Connector SmartApp^™, Fishman^® has created a complete benchtop automation system that assures each fiber optic connector is filled precisely, cycle after cycle.
 

How the Fiber Optic Benchtop Automation
System Works – It all starts with…

 
The SmartDispenser^® with AlgorithmicControl^™ is the industry’s only intelligent fluid dispensing system. With its high degree of intelligence, the SmartDispenser^®– is able to supply the precise amount of epoxy to each fiber optic connector, guaranteeing exact replication.
 

Next comes… the LC/MT/SC Genius^™
Precision ConnectorMount^™

 
Its unique design holds LC, MT or SC fiber optic connectors in a fixed position. This allows the fluid dispense tip to be guided into the connector center tube in preparation for the application of assembly fluid, which results in an unparalleled measure of precision.
 

Now add… the LC/MT/SC Connector SmartApp^™

 
The added intelligence achieved with the LC, MT and SC Connector SmartApp^™ permits the Fiber Optic Automation System to monitor the amount of fluid in the syringe reservoir, and keep track of epoxy cure time. This level of control helps further support true automation.
 

Complete the system with…
the SmartReload^™ Station

 
As the rapid syringe changeover station for the Fiber Optic Automation System, the SmartReload^™ Station reduces syringe changeover from roughly 9 minutes to 40 seconds. This increases throughput while greatly reducing the cost of running a typical hand-held benchtop assembly line.
